DNA methylation markers as triage test for the early identification of cervical lesions in a Chinese population.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective strategies are required in cervical cancer screening. We have identified several DNA methylation markers with high sensitivity and specificity to detect cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or worse (CIN2+) in Dutch women. Our study aims to analyze the diagnostic characteristics of these markers in a Chinese cohort. A total of 246 liquid-based cytology samples were included, of which 205 women underwent colposcopy due to an abnormal cytology result (atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance [ASCUS] or worse), while 227 were tested high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) positive. All six individual markers (ANKRD18CP, C13ORF18, EPB41L3, JAM3, SOX1 and ZSCAN1) showed enhanced methylation levels and frequency with increasing severity of the underlying lesion (P ≤ .001). In cytological abnormal women, sensitivity to detect CIN2+ was 79%, 76% and 72% for the three panels (C13ORF18/EBP41L3/JAM3, C13ORF18/ANKRD18CP/JAM3 and ZSCAN1/SOX1, respectively), with a specificity of 57%, 65% and 68%. For the first two panels, these diagnostic characteristics were similar to the Dutch cohort, while for ZSCAN1/SOX1 the sensitivity was higher in the Chinese cohort, but with a lower specificity (both P < .05). In hrHPV-positive samples, similar sensitivity and specificity for the detection of CIN2+ were found as for the abnormal cytology cohort, which were now all similar between both cohorts and non-inferior to HPV16/18 genotyping. Our analysis reveals that the diagnostic performances are highly comparable for C13ORF18/EBP41L3/JAM3 and C13ORF18/ANKRD18CP/JAM3 methylation marker panels in both Chinese and Dutch cohorts. In conclusion, methylation panels identified in a Dutch population are also applicable for triage testing in cervical cancer screening in China.
